Music often moves forward by looking back. In her sparkling Concerto for String Orchestra, composer Grażyna Bacewicz channels the rhythmic vitality and clarity of Baroque traditions through a modern lens. The evening also features Laurentia Woo (violin), the Gold Medal Winner of the Stulberg International String Competition, bringing youthful brilliance to a concerto from the Classical era. The program closes with Franz Schubert’s graceful Fifth Symphony, an affectionate homage to Mozart’s elegance and clarity.
